Meet Pengreen—a cute yet remarkable creation born from captured carbon. Watch as Pengreen’s journey unfolds and the penguin discovers it’s part of the CarbonXmade family: yoga mats, shoes, pendants, bags, sofas, and more—all made from emissions resulting from industrial manufacturing. The project, which transforms CO₂ into useful products, is part of Tencent’s CarbonX program, which brings together a global consortium of industry, consumer product, investment and ecosystem partners. Two industry partners, Sasol and SINOPEC Carbon Industry Technology, join the CarbonXmade consortium, together with consumer product partners such as HAY, McDonald's China, PepsiCo, POP MART and Unilever.
